I have customized the packages not present in GNU Emacs (our version
of man.el, crypt.el, filladapt.el and balloon-help.el, and
gnus-xmas.el).

I really don't know whether RMS objects to customize.  Per, what are
RMS' thoughts on the matter?

The copyright problems should be nonexistant, as I've assigned to the
FSF all of my past and future XEmacs changes.
